Review & Release History of Peanut Butter Cup Liquid Death, Ice Breakers, & More

Review

The mint of these is different than other minty gums. It’s a very smooth, almost creamy, and sweet type of mint. It’s not punchy or toothpaste-like, yet it’s very refreshing and enjoyable, with a mildly to moderately sweet, smooth-based mint flavor. It hits you with the first few bites, then lightens a little over time and keeps delivering good flavor. In my opinion, this is one of the better mint-based gums I’ve had. At the same time, I wouldn’t opt for this if I wanted a stronger gum with an extra-punchy minty taste.

Review

First, much better than their pumpkin flavor. These have a pleasant, lightly sweet apple-like flavor. Combined with the corn-tasting background of the twists themselves and an essence of cinnamon, you really get apple pie vibes. Nothing tastes artificial or wrong, and funnily, these kinds of taste like a corn-based cereal–I almost want to throw these in milk! Lastly, they’re reasonably crunchy and aren’t rough by any means — their mouthfeel and texture are pretty good overall.

Review

It’s like they tried to mix plain corn with an odd pumpkin spice flavor. What you get is a dry, dull-tasting mix of both: a cheap corn-chip taste and light pumpkin spice. At the very least, they’re reasonably crunchy and not too hard. It’s just that the flavor and dryness are such a weird mix that they turn me off.

Review

These have such a strange, darkish, pale red color. They’re filled with a sweet, slightly dark chocolate flavor, but this chocolate is a little different. I wouldn’t say it’s milk or precisely red velvet; maybe a mix of the three (dark, milk, and red velvet?). It definitely has that slightly sour note that red velvet has, especially if you’re looking for it.

Anyway, I’m not sure — it’s still reasonably sweet, and the flavor itself is definitely good, not artificial, and pretty creamy — definitely something you’d like if you’re into chocolate! Lastly, the wafer itself has a crunchy, thin, wafer-like texture and provides a satisfying mouthfeel with the soft, loaded chocolate inside.

Review

The taste combination is a smooth, mildly to moderately sweet, sugary peach flavor paired with creamy marshmallow and a crusty-ish, dough-ish flavor. It’s a great flavor combination and is very pleasant and smooth, and surprisingly, none of it tastes as artificial as the other Moon Pie flavors. The marshmallow and sugary peach come through equally, and combined with the mild dough-ish (or is it crust?) taste and soft texture, it really feels like you’re eating peach cobbler in a soft, marshmallow-like form!

Review

Lightly gritty, soft, and thick square gum pieces. It hits you with a refreshingly sweet mix of equal parts strawberry and lemonade. It’s not at all punchy, instead leaning towards a more sugary side. Also, not quite as artificial a strawberry as other gums, and overall, that strawberry with the lemonade really reminds me of a summery sweet lemonade punch.

Review

This drink has a pretty strong, peanut-buttery aroma when you open it. In terms of taste, it’s interesting but also not surprising. It has a clear, smooth peanut butter taste with a mild-to-moderate sweetness, and that’s really it. It tastes just like water and coffee-flavor sweeteners, if you’ve ever mixed those in your drinks.

Essentially, it’s a bit artificial and clearly not authentic peanut butter, though it’s adequate enough. As a peanut butter lover, I found this just land on being okay, though I don’t think I’d buy it again — the artificial peanut butter just isn’t all that great, in my opinion.

Review

Reasonably thick (even more so when it’s been fridged), just don’t expect it to be as thick as Hershey’s or other syrups. And of course, this syrup is sufficiently tasty and would likely be enjoyed by almost anyone!

However, the flavor itself is not precisely white chocolate. If you blindfolded me, I’d have guessed a slightly artificial vanilla flavor or even a sugary glaze. There is a smidge of sweetener bitterness and sharpness, though it’s sweet enough to be mostly ignored. Also, to note, I found this white chocolate flavor much more appetizing and substantially less artificial than their white chocolate-based syrups.

Overall, despite some nitpicked shortcomings, it’s a good enough sauce to dump on almost anything, whether it’s muffins, ice cream, or brownies. Is it as good as regular vanilla or plain sugary glaze sauces? No, but honestly, this is pretty darn good and close enough, and especially tasty amongst the current Skinny Mixes sauce lineup — probably my favorite, or tied with Salted Caramel!

Lastly, compared to the Marshmallow flavor, this is a little sweeter and has a different artificial note, which affects its overall flavor profile. This flavor profile also leans towards a white chocolate/sugar-like taste. Still, both are similar, and my advice is to get this one if you enjoy a sweeter sauce.

Review

These smell like a strong, sweet, punchy lemonade, and the texture is a slightly gritty, chewy gum square.

In terms of flavor, it’s not as sweet or punchy as I expected. The sugary lemonade flavor is there, but it could use a bit more oomph. Instead, for better or worse, it falls on a less punchy, more pleasant side of flavors. The flavor is mostly accurate, resembling a cold lemonade you sip on a hot summer day, though it also contains a “sugary gum” note.

Review

Basically, this is an artificial combination of vanilla and marshmallow. It’s fairly sweet and sugary-tasting, with a clear, mildly bitter-like, sweetener-based flavor. It’s not hugely unpleasant, especially if you’re used to these types of products, but I could see some people raising an immediate eyebrow. Either way, this is a versatile product that can be used with or on anything!

If I had to compare it to the White Chocolate flavor, it’s close, both in terms of score and flavor. This is a smidge different, with a slightly different artificial flavoring that affects its flavor profile. It’s also a hint less sweet overall. All in all, though, they are close, with this leaning toward a marshmallow-like flavor.
